SENIOR LEAGUE

GRANEMORE 0-12 BALLYMACNAB 2-05

Our Seniors lost narrowly to near rivals
Granemore in their last league outing last Wednesday.

Ballymacnab got off to a dream start when
Pauric Gribben rose highest to flick home the first score of the game with a
goal inside a minute. As both sides got to know one another, Jack Grugan kicked
the 'Nab's second score with a point on the 9th minute. Granemore got off the
mark with a close in free on the 12th minute and began to get a grip of the game,
kicking 5 unaswered points to lead 0-6 to 1-1 at the break.

Jack Grugan levelled matters with two early
points at the beginning of the half but the homeside hit a brace of points to
lead by two again by the 40th minute. Rory Grugan exchanged a point with the
opposition before a Jack Grugan goal put Ballymacnab back in the driving seat
on the 45th minute. However this was short lived as Granemore hit 3 consecutive
points and while a Brian McCone point on the 55th minute brought the scoreboard
down to the minimum and equalising score could not be sourced against a
stubborn defence.
